Wow!

I haven't played a game like this before. Really simple, fun, but what I like best is that every time you lose, you want to try again and be better. I haven't felt that way since tetris or duck hunt. Music and sfx are really high quality. Not too easy, not too hard. I also like that the rain changes direction with the way that the wind blows, adding realism. The art goes well with this. I hope you make a sequel.

Simple but Excellent.

This kind of game was quintessential back in the day, and this is a rather excellent example of them. The game where you're only given one directive, and one control system, and increasing the complexity as you play. These kind of games thrive on gameplay and challenge rather than story, and I'm glad that you didn't really pull any punches on it. The art style is simple but readable, the gameplay is addictive and doesn't feel repetitive even though you're constantly doing the same thing, and the flow is rather smooth. The controls could've been a bit tighter, but that's only a minor technical issue.

The fact that I want to keep coming back to this to see if I can do better says it all, really. Major props for using the Song of Storms in the title screen, as well.

Coolio

Nice art, works perfectly in a game and the bear animations are pretty slick. It looked a bit weird how the ground stuff rotated very slowly though and I wish there was more variety in stuff dropping, depending on the background scene maybe.
